Steam – Is DSCfix still needed/useful for multiplayer now that the game uses steamworks

dark-soulssteam

The Steam version of Dark Souls has finally been upgraded to use steamworks. Praise The Sun!

What kind of mods are required to get multiplayer to work? So far, I only have DSfix installed and working and am so far not getting any multiplayer activity (not even orange soap signs).

In the GFWL days, I needed to install the DSCfix mod in order to get reliable online play. Is that still needed now that the game uses steamworks?

DSCfix is no longer needed thanks to the new steam servers! Durante did release DSfix 2.3 which is all you will need now.
